Texas State president condemns white supremacist fliers found on campus

Texas State University officials said white supremacist fliers had been posted on some of the buildings on campus and that university police were investigating the matter.

University President Denise Trauth issued a statement Friday, condemning the fliers and telling students that “there is no place for hate at our university.”

“I have made it clear that these are despicable acts and that whoever is responsible for posting these flyers does not reflect the true spirit of Texas State,” Trauth said. “We are a diverse and inclusive university community and we reject those who seek to divide us and the messages that they promote.”

Trauth said similar fliers “have been documented at roughly 150 university and college campuses in more than 30 states over the past year.”
